Join us on the lawn of the Thomas Crane Public Library (40 Washington Street, Quincy) every Thursday night in July for some great music! Krisanthi Pappas and her band will present the third performance in the annual Concerts on the Lawn music series on Thursday evening, July 24 at 7:00 p.m. Bring your chair, sunscreen & bug spray and get ready for a great time! In case of rain, concerts will be moved to atrium.

Jazz and Swing Vocalist Krisanthi Pappas and her band, will present a lively concert of jazz and swing standards made popular by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Diana Krall, Michael Buble and the like. Krisanthi has been compared to Diana Krall and Norah Jones by Jazz Times Magazine. Also a Billboard® award winning composer and lyricist, her original songs have been featured in ABC television’s “One Life To Live”, NBC’s “Parenthood” and “Passions”, FOX's "The Mindy Project", as well as in the films "Green River" and “Tying The Not”.

"Pappas’s voice is bright, colorful, sweet and she can swing with the best of them. Her new album, Broadway Favorites... and All That Jazz!, is a versatile mix of mostly show tunes set to a strong jazz beat that proves to be an exciting disc!..." - Cabaret Scenes NY review

Krisanthi and her band have received rave reviews for her shows at Scullers Jazz Club in Boston, Foxwoods Resort and Casino, Company Theatre in Norwell, Footlighters Theatre in Walpole, The Orpheum Theatre in Foxboro as well as at and many other venues. Krisanthi has recorded five CDs and performs full-time throughout New England and New York City, having opened for Branford Marsalis, Chuck Mangione and many others.
